Ah yes, noted peace lover, the guy who literally started the war. I'm honestly curious why Garisson is painting Putin as wanting peace talks and as a dove. I'm pretty sure the only "peace talks" during the war were Putin going "This war will end when Ukraine is part of Russia."

Same reason that Hitler was "Europe's greatest humanitarian" to Nazi sympathizers the minute he went from domination to making GBS threads in a bucket in his bunker.

If he was winning he'd be strong powerful Putin over the weak woke gay West, because he's failing massively it's because he's just too peaceful for the degenerate barbarians.

Putin has requested peace talks which are pretty much "ok stop fighting back and let me keep the parts of Ukraine I've already conquered"

He's proposed peace talks saying he's willing to call it a draw and graciously withdraw, for the low price of letting him annex the territories he originally wanted to take.

It's obviously a farce but BenG doesn't give a gently caress what happens to the people of Ukraine, he only cares that US tax dollars aren't spent on foreign aid of any kind.

I was trying to see if he'd given Zelensky dollar signs in his eyes since they look a little strange, but I can't make it out on my phone.

They're just like a weirdly vivid green, so probably just being like "green with envy" or "green like greenbacks", cus Zelensky has very noticeably brown eyes.

I don't usually pay attention to pop culture singers, and I didn't know if she'd done anything special recently, so I looked her up on Wikipedia. Wikipedia said that she performed in the 2022 Glastonbury festival to condemn the overturning of Roe v. Wade. She advocates mental health awareness, and has criticized the animal fur industry. She also endorsed Joe Biden's presidential campaign in 2020.

Oh, and she appeared in June 2021 issue of British Vogue dressed in (gasp) lingerie, especially (gasp) corsets.

Y'know what's NOT in the Wikipedia article about her? Any reports of criminal behavior (not even a misdemeanor), or any reports of illegal drug use.

Way, way too many American celebrities have done bad stuff. She has used her celebrity to champion political and environmental causes she believes in, and has tried to persuade young people (her generation!) to be politically active and vote.

This is the person that Stantis has declared to be a terrible representative for Generation Z. The declaration says a lot more about Stantis than about her. I think Stantis' mask is slipping.

Nothing needs to be true for conservatives to whine about it. He's calling the green loser ribbons kids got participation trophies, and implying they had any impact after kids threw them in the trash. Feels like there is a paper to be written about the conservative obsession with high school sports awards that 99.9% of kids have no interaction with beyond seeing them in a glass case at school.

It's like that problem the Simpsons has where since the characters don't age "their generation" starts shifting so you got Homer reminiscing about the 90's instead of the 80's now.

She also does things like "pausing her entire-rear end concert because someone in the audience appeared to be in distress". More than once. But I guess she became an international megastar while still a fetus and that makes the whole thing bad somehow.

Well, he wouldn't have to do that if Bloodthirsty Biden would call off his proxy war of aggression!

e: I don't think the accompanying blog was posted, so here you go:

quote:

“He did not chose wisely…”

We at GrrrGraphics are anti-war. This means we do not support the globalist oligarchy when they perpetually start new ones. Congress has not declared war against Russia, nor is there any reason they should. Ukraine is not part of NATO, nor should they be. The United States has no vested interest in protecting Ukraine’s borders, especially since we’re not protecting our own.

Our legion of corrupt politicians as well as functionaries in the Deep State do have an interest in Ukraine. They’ve been using that country as a gigantic washing machine. In other words, a money laundering operation. Many in power have made sure billions of taxpayer dollars keep pouring into Ukraine and you can bet their family and friends are benefiting through kickbacks. Hunter Biden is just one example. The $67 billion sent to Ukraine thus far is not being tracked or accounted for—that is a recipe for corruption, and Zelensky is corrupt.

Yes, I know the media says Zelensky is a hero. Some have compared him with Winston Churchill. I disagree. As an entertainer with acting and social skills, he spends a lot of his time posing and basking in the media limelight. He constantly campaigns for more money to support his ‘democracy.’ Only Ukraine is not a democracy. Zelensky is an autocrat. He has banned political competition. Without support from the US and NATO, Zelensky would have long ago made a peace settlement with Moscow.

Now, thanks to endless US support, he has banned the possibility of peace talks with Russia. He actually signed a decree ruling them out. Like Biden, Zelensky is holding out for victory and ‘regime change’ in Russia. This is dangerous folly and it might even provoke nuclear war. The US is openly talking about the possibility of a nuclear exchange. That will certainly bring about real climate change that Biden and his string pullers keep yammering about.

The US does not benefit by poking a stick at the Russian bear, Putin. Ukraine is on Russia’s doorstep and historically under Russian control. NATO and its globalist leaders have been the real aggressors—not Russia. NATO has provoked many wars and brought about a lot of ‘regime changes.’ They tried to start a war in Syria. They murdered Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein. The latter was tricked into invading Kuwait. He thought he had the go-ahead from America as a reward for standing up to and draining the resources of Iran. It was a trap and now Iraq is an expensive mess with plenty of depleted uranium littering the country. Libya, once a prosperous and successful country, is now a disaster.

It’s no wonder Putin has put his foot down. He refuses to tolerate NATO’s perpetual expansion, which means Russia would eventually be forced to succumb to the western woke, trans mutilating, green, satanic, nihilistic, bug-eating, aggressive insanity now promulgated by the power-mad globalist bankers who control warmongering politicians such as Dementia Joe. Those central bankers have been able to get their way because they control the debt dollar, which is the world’s ‘reserve currency.’ Their corrupted dollar has led to great evil.

The globalist oligarchy want a proxy state in Ukraine for use as a bioweapons location and launching pad to eventually control Russia. The globalists are using the US to fight a proxy war and America’s military industrial complex and their lobbyists are only too willing to participate and rake in their usual gigantic profits. Throwing endless US taxpayer dollars into the bloody hands of Zelensky will only prolong the conflict and lead to thousands—maybe even millions—more dead. In the case of nuclear war, perhaps billions.

We need to stop supporting Zelensky and his Nazis in Ukraine. Let’s defend our own borders first.

— Ben Garrison

Given the circumstances, this is literally his job. Get the media's attention and sympathy in order to get the desperately needed aid for fending off a genocidal invader. Being the face of Ukraine is how he's helping Ukraine the most, both on the world stage and with his own people.
